Personally, I’ve met with my therapist over zoom and in person, and for me, in person is much better.

And if telemedicine becomes normalized, insurance companies will ram it down people’s craws in the name of “efficiency” and “cost saving”, even though it’s inferior for some people like yourself. Not all people even have a safe place to meet “virtually” with a therapist, away from nosy family, significant others, or roommates.
